Sarah Hyland Takes a Jab at Mike Pence for Disobeying a NASA Sign

"You are the Vice President. Not Phil Dunphy."

During a trip to NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, Vice President Mike Pencetouched a machine right below a sign reading "Critical Space Flight Hardware. DO NOT TOUCH." After Twitter exploded with memes based on the photo capturing this transgression, Pence proceeded to make jokes in self-defense, blaming his companion Senator Marco Rubio and editing the photo to appear like he's touching a porcupine. But the best jab we've gotten out of this may be from Sarah Hyland.

"Sir. You are the Vice President. Not Phil Dunphy. #DoNotTouch," Sarah tweeted. Phil Dunphy is the father of Sarah's character Haley on Modern Family, and he's known for his goofy antics. Her point is well taken: What might be a joke on a sitcom is not exactly funny when you're a politician around highly expensive, important, and potentially dangerous machinery.
